Save My Life With Lies

I heard a rumor about me and it made me wonder
If all things that come to pass
Have reason after all.
Roman said I was important to all,
Especially those whose hearts I hold.
I am the nail to the board,
The twine to the post
And it made me wonder why now?
Was it nicety, or reality
About me
That influenced his lips
Or maybe even his brain
To let loose the compliments he contained.
For it was not long in the past,
He told Bella of transgressions I had never commited.
There was a day when I was blissfully unaware of his sword unsheathed
Leveling slowly
Into the small of my back,
It took Bella's cries for me to realize
The death of our life together
Brought on by Roman's silver tongue.
But if not for his words then,
I may have never wandered to the fields alone,
Stumbling upon the one butterfly
Who dared to stay
Upon my shoulder
And save my life.

Speechless

Cosmically enhanced, from day one you had me entranced
So much so
That I always seem to forget
The words I would place here
To describe you best, my butterfly.
Something about this...
The way you said that...
Maybe...the smile...
And how all the while...
You do all that you do...
I don't know how to say
There is a way
About who you are
That drives me to the stars
And in that trip
I lose my mind
To my heart
Again, forcing me to start over...
I try to equate you to a four-leaf clover,
Sweetly frosted in my life,
There's something magical in all you do,
It preventss me from ever finding the words
To tell you how true
I believe this love to be...
Lost again in the face I see.

MyGrain

There is a stabbing behind my eyes
A sharpness attacking my thoughts considered wise.
It's rise
Is brought about from the demise
Of my prized
Memory.
Traces of faces seem to melt
Mold and pelt
The inside of my brain.
I cannot keep straight
What is real,
What might be fake.
I have become the clown, masked with cake.
I turn to tomorrow and ask for help,
But burningg in my head
Is the ever constant yelp
Screaming and tearing from left to right,
Never letting me sleep without fright.
